In roughly chronological order:
- Did not eat breakfast at home and so arrived at work at 7:30 ravenous.
- Devoured the 2nd half of my Monday $5 footlong for breakfast.
- And then chased it with a fantastic toasted coconut donut from Looney Baker courtesy of a coworker.
- Photoshopped Roxy onto a laser background.
- Read about all of the candidates in the elections in which I had a say, even the candidates who were just interested in being excellent and/or SAVING THE CHILDREN. (Note: I support these things, but you need a more substantial platform to get my vote.)
- Got coffee with Shane.
- Rocked the vote and resolved to rock as many other things as possible for the rest of the day.
- Found Shane’s Kindle, which I had hidden away in the box of presents, just in time to drive him to the airport.
- Checked out the pretty amazing Ann Arbor PTO Thrift Shop and scored some cheap argyle for #argylethursday.
- Ate a taco, thus observing Taco Tuesday, though not in the designated location.
- Figured out that the thermostat – while old and janky – does work. We just hadn’t turned the heat up high enough for it to regularly kick in. 65 feels soooo much better than 60ish.
- Finished The Red Queen with a warm Mina on my lap.
- Attempted to put together the cycling trainer. No assembly required!
- Attempted to attach my bike to the trainer. Failed due to my lack of quick release wheels.
- Attached Shane’s bike to the trainer. Got very greasy.
- Attempted to inflate Shane’s tires. Failed. Cried a few hot tears of frustration.
- Chatted with Shane, stuck in the Orlando airport en route to Philadelphia.
- Picked up dinner and half-priced baked goods from Plum Market. Mmm inexpensive Zingerman’s marshmallows.
- Got a pep talk from Abigail and also determined that AC Slater isn’t as tough as he lets on.
- Successfully inflated Shane’s tires. Attempted and failed at removing pedals, so attempted to ride using Shane’s shoes. Sort of hilarious but successful!
